Disorder of written expression and dysgraphia: definition, diagnosis, and management
TL;DR: The diagnosis and treatment of dysgraphia and specific learning disorders typically centers around the educational system; however, the pediatrician can play an important role in surveillance and evaluation of co-morbidity as well as provision of guidance and support.

TL;DR: The energy landscape of Tau-mediated, GTP-dependent ‘active' microtubule bundles at 37 °C, as revealed by synchrotron SAXS and TEM is mapped out and would be significantly affected by charge-altering modifications of Tau associated with neurodegeneration.
Direct force measurements reveal that protein Tau confers short-range attractions and isoform-dependent steric stabilization to microtubules.

TL;DR: An isoform-dependent biological role for regulation by Tau is suggested, with longer isoforms conferring MT steric stabilization against aggregation either with other biomacromolecules or into tight bundles, preventing loss of function in the crowded axon environment.

Social Behaviors and Active Videogame Play in Children with Autism Spectrum Disorder
TL;DR: In this paper, an augmented reality (AR) game was used to introduce active videogames (AVGs) to children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD), and the AR game demonstrated consistent elevations in social behaviors.
